Hudson Ellis is good at his job. Somehow, he manages not to annoy people when he knocks at their doors and asks them to contribute to the charity he works for - instead, he gets them to sign up for sponsoring programmes and fish whatever spare change they have out of their pockets. Even the infamously tough residents of New York City are falling victim to Hudson's easy-going ways and wide smile; that is, until one woman renders him speechless with sarcastic refusals and slams her door in his face. Perhaps Hudson would be able to forget her - if it wasn't for the fact that she lives on the same floor of the next apartment over, and they both have floor-to-ceiling windows that allow for a rather generous view into each other's flats.

Hadley Jamison doesn't know what to think when she hears that her classmate, Archer Morales, committed suicide. She didn't exactly know him, but that doesn't stop her from feeling like there was something she could have done to help him. So to Hadley's surprise, on the very night of Archer's funeral, she has a run in with Death himself and is offered the chance to go back in time to stop Archer from ending his life. The catch? She only has twenty-seven days to do it. And if Hadley doesn't succeed? Well, she doesn't want to think about that.

After meeting one night at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, they instantly click and find that they share some of the same traits and hobbies - the most prominent being a complete lack of understanding of what they want to accomplish in life. Although the first step is admitting that you've got a problem, it sure doesn't hurt to have someone who shares the same issues helping you along the way to recovery. *I do not claim ownership to the image in my cover in any way.

"Photography is all about secrets. The secrets we all have and will never tell." -Kim Edwards Eleanor Morisette doesn't speak. She doesn't have an illness that causes it, and wasn't born mute; she just chooses not to talk. What reason is there to say words when no one's there to hear them? Instead, she expresses herself through the art of photography. Obsessed with the beauty in the world that overshadows her own problems, all she wants is to someday capture life to its fullest; without having to worry about her parents' declining love and the loneliness of being an outcast at school. But what happens when she accidentally takes a photo of a boy who she can't take her mind off? Will he be the one to open up her shell? Or will she continue wandering lost in her world of lonely magic?

*FORMERLY DAY BY DAY* Maddy is a hot-headed, passionate feminist with an obsession for watching new television shows (hello, Orphan Black), listening to good music, and all things that have anything to do with food. When Elissa (a bold cheerleader who is on top of the pyramid - literally and figuratively) is assigned to tutor Maddy in Chem or risk having her grade dropped, you can imagine neither girl is excited about the prospect of being within five feet of each other. Maddy will need a good supply of chocolate bars. Elissa will not be pleased. [cover by @taceturnity]
